Looking for you in reincarnation

Chapter 73 Undercurrent

"Let's go back."

After Ning Ji said this, they hurriedly set off and headed towards the mountain stronghold.

After being out for most of the day, they were tired and hungry and wanted to go back early.

Especially those people carrying bags, they wanted to go back quickly, throw the stuff away, and then take a shower. It was so disgusting.

So on the way back, everyone walked very fast, which exhausted the women who followed them. Not only did they suffer today, but they also didn't get anything out of the question. It was equivalent to a wasted trip.

After returning to the mountain stronghold, Ning Ji hurriedly took Si He back to the yard and began to decoct medicine for her.

The more than ten bags of insects were first piled up in the small kitchen in the yard. The people who carried the bags put them down and left in a hurry. No one wanted to stay.

There were also some newly delivered medicine-making utensils in the kitchen. Before entering the mountain today, Ning Ji asked Zhao Mie to have someone go down the mountain to buy them.

At this time, Si He had returned to her room to sleep. Two people were guarding the door, and there were also two people guarding outside the kitchen, following Hou Ningji's orders, but in fact they were keeping an eye on her.

Ning Ji didn't care and just went about his own business.

He first took out the medicine bag and boiled the medicine, then boiled a pot of water and boiled the medicine for the medicinal bath.

After doing all this, he took out a bag of infusoria while watching the fire and poured it into a large basin. He asked the two people guarding the kitchen to filter the mud in the basin and then wash it.

When the two men saw the big white bugs in the basin, they were shocked and got goosebumps all over their bodies!

They only realized it belatedly. No wonder those people left in a hurry with ugly faces after putting down the bags. It turned out that the bags were full of this disgusting stuff!

They didn't want to do this job, but Ning Ji ordered them to do it, so they had no choice but to bite the bullet and sift out the mud from the basin and then clean the insects.

Just looking at the dense group of white bugs in the basin made them feel a little nauseous!

This is such a chore!

The person guarding the door not far away was also surprised and disgusted when he saw this, and at the same time, he watched them work with a gloating look on his face.

After they washed a basin of insects, they poured them into a large vat in the kitchen according to Ning Ji's instructions, and then continued to wash the remaining insects in the bag.

Hearing this, the two men felt like the sky was falling!

They have been washing for such a long time without vomiting the bugs. They have been patient for a long time. Now they have to continue washing?!

But they didn't dare not wash, for fear that the village chief would blame them, so they asked the other two guards to wash together, so that everyone could share the difficulties!

So, the four men in the yard suppressed the urge to vomit and cleaned the bugs helplessly.

Because the bugs were so disgusting, they didn't dare to wash them by hand. They could only use a sieve to clean them without even touching water!

They worked quickly and felt relieved only after all the bugs were washed.

At this moment, half of the large tank was already filled with insects, which were densely packed and kept wriggling. When the four people saw this scene, they felt even more nauseous.

There were two people who had been holding back for a long time. They quickly ran out of the yard and vomited in the corner outside.

This job is so painful!

The remaining two people in the yard did not dare to approach the kitchen. If they did not have to guard it, they would have wanted to take a shower immediately and leave this disgusting place!

Ning Ji continued to watch the fire, carefully decocting the medicine. Only after it was ready did he let them come in with buckets and fetch water.

The medicine in the big pot was used for bathing. It was black and had a strong medicinal smell. The servants who carried the water thought that there must be insects added to the water, so they were very careful when carrying the water, for fear that it would splash on themselves and make them feel sick.

Ning Ji poured the medicine from the medicine pot into a bowl, brought it into the room, and fed it to Si He.

The servants guarding outside the door took a sneak peek and watched her drink the medicine. They felt inexplicably nauseous and even suspected that there were insects added to the medicine.

After Ning Ji fed Si He the medicine, she still looked tired and didn't want to eat, so he took her to take a medicinal bath and then gave her acupuncture.

However, her condition today was different from last night, and she fell asleep while taking a bath.

Fortunately, after acupuncture, her pulse stabilized.

Her condition seemed to have returned to the same state as before. He frowned and stayed by her bed for a while, then carefully pulled open her eyelids and checked the condition of her eyes.

Her pupils were still dark red, showing no improvement.

He pondered for a long time before getting up and walking to the kitchen to fiddle with the bugs.

During this time, the people guarding the yard took a sneak peek and didn't look again.

The noise here was transmitted to the front hall, where Zhao Mie and the other two were discussing countermeasures.

"Brother, Ning Ji and that woman are too tight-lipped and refuse to reveal anything. What should we do?" Wei Bao was running out of patience.

Wei Hu suggested, "How about we just use force? Just tie him up and torture him. Why go through so much trouble? If that woman really has something on the Imperial Master, we won't hand her over. We can just detain her in the village and have fun with her. As for Ning Ji... hmph, just kill her and be done with it."

Wei Bao asked: "What if it's not a handle, but it's really because of stealing medicine?"

Wei Hu said: "Then hand over the person and collect the reward."

"I think it's okay." Wei Bao agreed. He looked at Zhao Mie and said, "Brother, what do you think?"

Zhao Mie pondered for a moment and said, "Let's test it one last time tomorrow. In the meantime, prepare some wine and food and treat us well. Ning Ji is quite skilled in martial arts, so he won't force us if he can."

Wei Hu and Wei Bao knew what he meant. This method would work. They could just put something in the food and wine, and when the drug fell out, they would just tie the people up. It was simple and direct.

That night, the village was peaceful, but elsewhere there was constant killing.

Since the Taiyi Sect was banned, the Hongyun Sect, Baishi Sect, and Tianquan Sect were banned one after another. The charges were the same: keeping evil corpses and killing innocent people.

Except for a few disciples who were not in the sect and luckily escaped, all others were imprisoned in the dungeons of various sects, and their fate was the same as that of Taiyi Sect.

For a time, the news spread like wildfire outside.

As much as people once admired these immortal disciples, they now hate and fear them.

Even the immortal sects in other cities were affected by this incident, and their reputations have dropped a lot. Now they are all very low-key.

No one dared to investigate further, and no one dared to redress the grievances of these unfortunate immortal sects, because the one who made the conviction was the current imperial master.

Even if it is an injustice, so what? The State Master is in a high position of power and authority, second only to the emperor in the Great Yan Dynasty.

Anyone who dares to confront the Imperial Master is seeking death!

The person who was happiest about this was Gao Hua, the county magistrate of Lingcheng.

Although this was not a good thing and had a bad impact on Lingcheng, for him personally, it meant a successful career and a lot of money.

Not only did he get on board the Imperial Master's big ship, but every time he destroyed a sect, he would plunder a lot of money.

You know, this is all the property of the four sects. Even if most of it is handed over, he will still make a fortune.
